El Scary Chupacabra

The sun falls behind the shadowed mountain turning the night blind leaving behind a thieving ghostly lune moon and wandering mind. A courtyard with tables all around lovers listen to music and drinking wine as the breaking sea waves glisten. Sounds of scary growls are heard. From out of the darkness large creatures covered in glowing long green hair and fiery eyes, evil creeper features tramp towards the people biting them with their gleaming white fangs sending some to the grim reaper. Sounds of loud exploding bangs wakes me up trembling. Outside my window the garbage truck is crawling along the street stopping as a man jumps off not falling, lifting emptying trash cans and replacing them back onto the curb. It tries to do its best not to disturb, but the sounds fail to perturb.

It is amazing how we will incorporate sounds into our dreams and our mind makes up a story about them. I enjoyed this Eve. I have seen stories about the gruesome looking Chupacabra. Wonderful! : )

Scary growls. Yes. I think all growls are scary. I had forgotten how wonderful the word growl is, this poem is a terrific reminder of how much a teeny word can bring to the table. Garbage truck noises are scary too. So nicely penned Eve. Good luck in the contest!

Ooh, yep, they are scary; my theory is that they're something deliberately crossed by human geneticists. They were uncontrollable and either escaped a lab or they were tossed out. Nevertheless, they'll haunt your dreams; especially when loud bangs and grows from outside trucks are the soundtrack! Great piece.
